(yeah - I Know)

RawStory

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) says Tuesday there is a strong possibility a patch of disturbed weather in the Atlantic Ocean could develop into a tropical depression or storm within the next 24 hours.

The disturbance has not yet been named, but if it becomes a storm with sustained wind speeds of up to 39 mph it will be named Tropical Storm Don.

3. Not yet - (I don't think so)

As far as I can tell it's still acting administrator Benjamin Friedman.

14. LOL

Guess I read your comments - some posters there are way too eager for hurricanes. They forget that people and other animals are in grave danger.

10. Angry, unpredictable, can suddenly turn on you, and many fail to heed the warning .

The storm looks pretty bad too!
